Hello, I have 2 R9 290x in crossfire, that I would like to water cool. I have just once water cool, only the CPU, but never water cool 2 GPU. I would like to know what I need to buy to create a water cooling Loop for both my GPU and my CPU.
I have read many guides on water-cooling but all are too complexes. I know that I will need 2 Water block for GPU + CPU.
My problem come when I need to buy:
-Radiator -> Which is the min require for my loop, how I get a fan and fix it with the radiator.
-Pump -> What pump can power 2gpu with a PSU? is the Swiftech MCP355 enough?
-Reservoir -> I saw that in many loop there is one to take out the remaining air... guess will need one of them.
-Bridge -> Do I need one, as i have 2 GPU in the loop?
-Fillings -> I guess any recommended filling will do
-Fitting and Tubings -> I have no idea how the loop has to look like? so I don't know how much length of tube I need to buy.
-How to create the loop? -> "Pump>CPU>Bridge>both GPU>Radiator>Reservoir" is the loop like that? Will this be good? I have no idea.
-How to I power all the Water-coolant equipment, how do I supply them the energy they need to work, where do I put the cables in my Mother board.
If I can get a nice temperature out of this I would like to be able to overclock my CPU from 3.3ghz to 4ghz, and my 2 GPU from 1000mhz to 1100mhz.
Thank for helping me.
I would like to be able to do it by December. I have order the 2 Graphic cards (R9 290x), did not came yet as out of stock of the UK retailer, and thus have to wait another 2 week before receiving them.
